About Me

In addition to being a leader, dad, uncle, & data guy, I am a data & technology professional with real-world experience in data science, data analytics, data engineering, fraud detection, risk modeling, building and maintaining data teams, project management, sales, consulting, and teaching.

My passion for data and statistics has inspired me to become an Adjunct Professor of Statistics, which has improved my ability to explain complex subjects to all levels of understanding. I love to learn in general and am a data fanatic.

On a more personal note, I love being a husband, father, and uncle. I also love being active - soccer, running, cycling, hiking, lifting - and taking pictures (usually of my kids).
